Fuck Buttons – Tarot SportFuck Buttons – Tarot Sport

Fuck Buttons are definite followers of the new noisy stream in music started most prominently by Animal Collective. (At the same time, they’re pretty close to Mogwai.) Noisy, wild, the rhythm is the king. It’s drawing you inside, it’s pressing heavily on you, aggressively and animalistically. The sophomore album of these Londoners is more convincing than their debut. There’s this feeling of stretched rubber all through the album. Wilder Surf Solar, metallic Rough Steez, epic Olympians. Rough Steez clanks with steel like a pretty big factory, The Lisbon Maru jingles with coins in a gypsy-like manner, then building up with the military drumroll the pathos before Olympians – the warrior theme there goes all the way. Fantom Limb creates a total spin of spare parts, engines and metal things.

The head almost blasts with this music, but at the same time it brings you to the verge of some kind. The music of chaos lets you get along with the disorder of the world more easily. Andrew Hung and Benjamin Power are some kind of masters from “The Flower of Stone” (Russian fairy tale), making beauty of inorganic matter.
